Cafés face a unique compliance challenge: right-to-work checks, food hygiene certificates, and a team that often includes overseas workers on time-limited visas. KornerIQ brings it all together — expiry alerts, document storage, and holiday tracking in one dashboard.
KornerIQ replaces all of this with one dashboard — built for the way UK small businesses actually run.
Log share code checks digitally. Automatic alerts before each visa or pre-settled status expires — no missed follow-ups.
Track Level 2 Food Hygiene certificate expiry for every café team member. Alerts sent before any certificate lapses.
Digital holiday requests with one-click approvals. Sick leave logged automatically. Bradford Factor calculated per employee.
All staff documents in one secure, searchable place — contracts, payslips, right-to-work evidence, allergen training records.
Café owners must keep records of food hygiene training for all staff who handle food. Level 2 Food Hygiene certificates must be renewed typically every 3 years. During an EHO inspection, you must be able to produce current certificates for all food-handling staff. KornerIQ tracks expiry dates and sends alerts before any certificate lapses.
Student visa holders have the right to work up to 20 hours per week during term time (full-time in vacations). Their right to work is time-limited, so you must conduct a follow-up right-to-work check before their student visa expires. KornerIQ tracks each expiry date and sends alerts at 90, 60, 30 and 7 days before each deadline.
You are not legally required to use software, but without a system you have no audit trail for holiday requests — which creates exposure in employment tribunal disputes. KornerIQ provides a simple digital request and approval process, with automatic leave balance tracking.
